You can now use Rx combinators in JavaScript. RxJS provides easy to use conversions from existing DOM, XmlHttpRequest and jQuery events to Rx push-collections, allowing users to seamlessly plug Rxinto their existing JavaScript-based web sites. Great. What does this mean, exactly? As you know by now, Rx is a library for composing asynchronous and event-based programs using observable collections.

Here, Rx developer Jeffrey Van Gogh explains (and demonstrates) what you can do with RxJS, how he ported Rx to JavaScript and more.

Same problems here. By the way, skipping to another point in the video in the silverlight viewer has never worked reliably for me. Per skip there's a high probablity that it hangs, and then you have to reload. Is that just me, or other people too?

I don't usually have too much trouble at home. At work I get the media failure message a lot, but that only started happening about 6 months ago. However, over this last week Channel9 seems to be getting less responsive overall, and I am having lots more
trouble with the videos and it's been really slow to even post a message.

Finally finished it. It's really great to see Microsoft continuing to invest (and has accelerated investment, it seems) in Javascript and HTML, and innovate. Things that I would never have had time to justify even trying, are made possible by Rx, frankly.
I haven't done much Javascript in the past 2 years but before that it I was working on asynch encryption, where the client wanted certain fields on chosen forms to be encrypted, such that you had to enter in a key to decrypt them, and after 15 mins or a configured
time, encrypt the fields again (yes, I know it's not really secure ... it's just to help keep people from reading personal data on desktops that should be locked when the user is away ... but that's what they wanted).
